As soon as the weather starts to break in NYC mobs of illegal dirt bike riding assholes start rampaging through the streets. The ride in such great numbers that the NYPD just does nothing. A couple of summers ago these fuckers were tearing ass down my street the wrong way and riding on the sidewalks. I had to yank…

As a pedestrian, I care a lot about that cyclist blowing through a stoplight/stop sign/turning right on red without slowing when there’s no car coming, and I’m in the intersection with the right of way. As a disabled pedestrian, I’m rapidly losing the ability to dodge that cyclist.

In the last three weeks I’ve had two cyclists end up in front of my car. The first crossed the street in front of me when I had a green light, luckily I was just far enough back and paying enough attention that I saw them and slowed down.

I’ve spent a lot of my life as a cyclist. I used to head off on cycling holidays.

If they ride on public roads, they have to follow the same rule as a vehicle.

After five years of a 1/2 mile walk in which I had to cross a busy street with lights and crosswalks from my train station to my office in Arlington, VA, I never came close to being run over by a car. I lost count of how many cyclists nearly ran me over in the crosswalk when blasting through red lights. I actually did…

To be fair, I have come across a lot of disrespectful cyclists. The most common offense I encounter is running red lights or stop signs as if they weren’t even there or didn’t apply to them, and unexpectedly swerving from the shoulder into the middle of the lane in front of me without any sort of hand signals. I’m…

If the rules aren’t written, they aren’t rules.

How is anyone defending this keep-away bullshit?

I miss the days when people honored the unwritten rules

Literally every other competitive esport in existence manages fine with regular monitors.

This is fucking hilarious, Smash is full of petulant manbabies. Perfect example of why nobody takes that community seriously.

It’s stuff like this that prevents me from entering a competitive environment in any game.

I have, for many years, maintained the truism that fighting with honor creates only a moral obligation to lose. If you cannot sort a route around your opponent’s tactics, that’s on you.  So long as the play was within established…

Happens all the time in white-collar cases. Feds call it a deferred prosecution. Someone pays a bunch of money (in this case via bail forfeit) and the Court enters an order says something like don’t fuck up again for one, two whatever years and it’s like it never happened (not sure that happened here though). But…

JB Weld should sponsor his project.

And you'll tell anyone you can about it any chance you get.

So I guess those of us who thought Roland was gay (and having a relationship with Tom) were incorrect. Or at least the show chose not to reveal it, or leave the possibility as subtext. I’m glad Roland found his canine companions, though. That scene with the stray dog was heartwarming.

I’m sure she didn’t just become racist overnight. Did they not check her social before engaging her services?

Unpopular opinion: The DNC fucking over Bernie Sanders is what put Trump in office. It’s literally partially Hillary’s fault.
